Pet Pain Management Services in Grand Junction, CO

At River Valley Gateway, we offer pet pain management services for pets to ensure that they are more comfortable during a difficult time. Our veterinarians work to find a pet pain management regimen that fits your pet's specific needs. Over time, pets can have discomfort in their joints and other areas of the body. Each pet is unique and has different issues, and we are committed to individualized care. As a certified hospice and palliative care veterinarian, Dr. Norton has additional training in pain management. She goes above and beyond to find a pain treatment plan for your beloved pet. River Valley Gateway may recommend oral medications, physical modalities such as acupuncture or chiropractic manipulations, herbal supplements, CBD oil, nutritional supplements, and even more. We try a combination of efforts to see what works best for your pet. For more information on our pet pain management services, contact River Valley Gateway in Grand Junction, CO, today.

Pet Hospice Care

Pet hospice care is a unique approach to their end-of-life needs focusing on the pet’s comfort rather than finding a cure for their disease. Additional pain relief or palliation may be necessary, so let us help you help your pet achieve more comfort. We offer 3 levels of comfort care.
